I have a product named:
Microsoft Office 2021 Home & Business ESD

Unfortunately the & sign is displayed incorrectly:
1. On bottom bar:
Microsoft Office 2021 Home &#0…
2. On prev/next product:
Microsoft Office 2021 Home �…

If I change & in product name to & then in both cases is:
Microsoft Office 2021 Home &am…

Can you fix this and determine what kind of sign to use?

Regards
Pawel

Hello,

1/ Add the next code in functions.php of your child theme:
```
add_filter('etheme_sticky_cart_title', function ($title, $full_title) {
	return $full_title;
}, 10, 2);
```
Filter to show full title in sticky panel instead of cropped one by 30 chars.
2/ Download navigation-prev-next.php file from this page – https://dropmefiles.com.ua/en/T6H7fGEs and upload it into /wp-content/themes/xstore/templates folder, then add the next code in functions.php of your child theme
```
add_filter('etheme_prev_next_title', function ($title, $full_title) {
return $full_title;
}, 10, 2);
```

Hello
Many thanks for the solution!

It works great and this way of displaying product titles is much better for customers.
IMHO should be default ‘coz there will be less confusion with longer product names.

And special chars also are displayed correctly 🙂

Please contact administrator
for this information.
